Throughout his time on the professional stage, he switched between numerous teams, the first and most successful of which was Bren Esports. With them, Enrico won several tier-2 and tier-3 tournaments, including: AOC Masters Tournament - Philippines, Mineski VxV, and PVP Esports Final 2020.
His last team was the Indian Revenant Esports, with whom Ching did not achieve significant results.

I am writing this post as an announcement of the end of my professional playing career in VALORANT. I am very proud and pleased with what I've achieved as a player and what I've been able to experience throughout my career. Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey, especially those who stuck with me through thick and thin, I will never forget all of you, and don't worry, I will still occasionally play and stream. Thanks to all my teammates, I am leaving the professional scene, but I will keep supporting you guys.
It's still uncertain whether Ching will become a streamer, but there's a possibility he might transition into a content creator role for a Pacific organization. Stay tuned to our portal to find out more about the fate of the former professional player.
